On March 27th, MacBidouille/HardMac is protesting against the DADVSI bill which was voted by the French lower chamber last Tuesday. Freewares, OpenSource projects, web radios, legal P2P exchanges, legal online music stores, the private copy right, are some examples of what will be strongly affected if the validation process of this law is completed. We think that our government has made a huge mistake by following Music Majors lobbying, proposing a law that, while supposed to solve the music piracy problem, will strongly affect our constitutional rights.
We think that "interoperability proposal" might be a solution if it is applied equally to all the actors of the online music store market (Music Majors, Editors and distributors); and should not aim to target one specific company which has been the first one to propose such service.
The French Mac Community says NO to the DADVSI bill
